Where’s the cake?? Capital Harmony Chorus 30 year birthday celebration.

On 5 August 2023 we celebrated 30 years of barbershop harmony with two shows at Churton Park School.  

We performed new songs, old songs in a new way, audience sing-along accompanied by ukueles, and of course, had cake! It included a slide-show of incredible highlights over the 30 years of friendship, singing and performing.

Christmas Cracker

Our 2019 show, on Sunday 1 December at Cashmere Ave School, Khandallah was a cracker of a show! We were joined by a men’s group, Harbour Capital Chorus, as well as smooth jazz from Cole Hampton and fast fun from John Pirini. Like Christmas, it only happens once a year.

Colours in Harmony

Our 2018 show, on 1 September at Khandallah Town Hall, featured moody hues, colourful characters and we celebrated the beauty of our wonderful world in barbershop style. The matinee and evening shows were well received by young and old.

Make a Joyful Sound!

Three women stayed the course of our Term 4 learn-to-sing-accapella Christmas course and sang with us at our Make a Joyful Sound concert on Sunday, 4 December 2016. We presented a concert of a range of traditional and modern Christmas – and other uplifting – music. We were joined by Felicity Baker and her pupils – the FAB Music Cellists. A wonderful end to the year.

Success at Sweet Adelines National Competition!

Capital Harmony Chorus won the Chorus Audience Choice Award at the Sweet Adelines National Competition held in Wellington on 30 April 2016. We presented an entertainment package of three songs with the theme of aspects of lives of women.

The songs were: Man I Feel Like a Woman (Shania Twain); Nine-to-Five (Dolly Parton) and Mame (from a musical).

“Not only did we win the Audience Choice Award but we were also pleased that our overall score went up a grade from the last time we competed which was two years ago,” says Chorus Director Joanne Olliver.
